When someone asks an AI what to buy, be the name it gives.
More and more buyers no longer start with ten blue links. They ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Google's AI answer a question in plain words and read one answer, and that answer names a handful of businesses. The ones it names get the visit. This book is the method Asendify built to become one of those names: choose the questions buyers really ask, answer each one to a written standard, make sure the machines can read you, give assistants reasons to cite you beyond your own claims, check five assistants every day, and turn the visits into paid orders. It promises no placement, because nobody can honestly promise that. It gives you the method, the checks and our own numbers, reported as they are.

What's inside
Read this first
What it is worth when an AI assistant names your business, the honest limits, the one idea behind the book and the whole method in seven steps.
How AI assistants choose what to recommend
From memory versus from search, what happens when someone asks, and where ChatGPT, Google, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, Brave, Grok and Meta AI get their sources, as of November 2026.
Choosing your questions
Questions, not keywords. Broad and niche (the 70/30 rule), buyer versus reader questions, where to find what people really ask, scoring, and when to retire a question.
The answer page standard
A written standard for every page: a direct answer that names names first, named steps, a comparison table, checked sources, an FAQ with matching structured data, a byline and a Last updated line.
Technical basics
robots.txt and the crawlers to allow, sitemaps, llms.txt, Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and IndexNow, with a per-site checklist.
Free tools as citation magnets
A small free tool that solves one slice of your buyer's problem gives assistants something concrete to name, and gives buyers a reason to meet you before they pay.
Off-site mentions without spam
Assistants trust names that several independent sources agree on: round-ups, Reddit and forums, social profiles, guest articles, directories, podcasts and YouTube, earned honestly, and what never to do.
Volume with a quality gate
Why volume matters, why it is dangerous, the gate that stops a weak page going live, setting your pace, and using AI to draft without letting it decide.
Checking daily on five assistants
What to ask, how to check fairly, what to log, reading the numbers, the weekly review, brand checks, and automating the checks carefully.
Turning AI visits into sales
Tracking AI referrals, where AI visitors land, a landing page that answers "what is it and what does it cost" on one phone screen, checkout and follow-up email.
The Asendify case study
What happened when we ran the method on our own products from October to November 2026, every number from our own logs, early and modest.
Common mistakes
The mistakes that waste the most time, most of which we made ourselves, each with its fix.
The 30-day plan
Four weeks from nothing to a working system: foundations, the first three pages, reasons to cite you, volume and conversion, and a weekly review in the diary.
Worksheets and templates
19 worksheets: question list and scoring, answer page checklist and skeleton, robots.txt, structured data, IndexNow, daily check log, weekly review, follow-up emails, outreach tracker and a glossary. The book closes with what to do today, tomorrow and this week.

Is it for you?
Who it's for
- Founders and solo businesses who sell a product, service, course, book or software and want AI assistants to name it when buyers ask.
- Creators and small teams with a site they control and a few hours a week, without an engineer or an SEO specialist.
- Anyone launching something new who wants answer pages, tracking and a check routine in place from day one.
- People already getting a few AI visits but few sales (Parts 10 to 12).
Not for you if
- You want a promised placement in ChatGPT. Nobody can honestly sell that, and this book says so.
- You want a trick or a shortcut. The method is steady work: real questions, pages written to a standard, and checking every day for weeks.
- You can't edit your own website (add pages, change the page head, upload files to the root).
Who's behind this
Get Recommended by AI is written by Manthan Bhendkar, founder of Asendify, which started as a video editing and YouTube growth agency and now runs a catalogue of books, courses, free tools and software, each on its own small website.
In October 2026 Asendify began a deliberate push to get AI assistants to name those products and built the system in this book to do it: answer pages to a written standard, llms.txt files on every site, Bing Webmaster Tools, IndexNow and Google Search Console, a free tool for each product, and a daily check of every product's questions on five assistants, logged to a database. Where the book describes how an assistant works, it says so carefully and dates it: November 2026.
From our own logs
Part 11 reports what happened when we ran the method on our own products, every number from our own records. Three examples, as they stood on 13 November 2026:
4,524 daily checks
From 18 October to 13 November 2026, an Asendify product was named in 194 checks (about 4.3%). The number of different questions naming us rose every week, from 4 to 11.
Niche questions won first
"What is retention engineering in YouTube editing and who offers it?" came to name us on all five assistants; the first broad questions began naming us only in November, and not yet consistently.
Small, real traffic
13 of 662 recorded human visits came from AI assistants, and one early sale came from a buyer who found us through ChatGPT. A beginning, not a finished success story.
Questions
Will this make ChatGPT recommend my business for certain?
No. Nobody outside the companies that build these assistants knows exactly how each one chooses what to name, and they change their systems often. The book gives you a method, a written page standard and a daily check so you can see what works for you. No mention, ranking, traffic, sale or income is promised.
Which AI assistants does it cover?
Where ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Brave, Grok and Meta AI get their sources and which crawlers to allow, as of November 2026. The daily check uses five of them: ChatGPT, Google's AI answer, Gemini, Perplexity and Brave.
Do I need to be technical or pay for SEO tools?
No. You need a website on your own domain where you can add pages and upload files, free Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools accounts, a way to see where visitors come from, a spreadsheet, and two to five hours a week for the first month. You do not need paid tools to start.
Are the Asendify results in it real?
Yes, and they are early and modest. From 18 October to 13 November 2026 our log holds 4,524 checks; an Asendify product was named in 194 of them (about 4.3%). 13 of 662 recorded human visits came from AI assistants, and one early sale came from a buyer who found us through ChatGPT. They describe one small business over a few weeks, not a forecast of your results.
Is this just SEO with a new name?
It shares the foundations (indexing, sitemaps, structured data, Bing as well as Google), but it starts from full-sentence questions buyers ask assistants rather than keywords, writes pages to be quoted, earns mentions on the pages assistants already cite, and measures success by checking the assistants every day rather than tracking rankings.
Can I get a refund?
No. It is an instant download, so all sales are final; a faulty file is fixed or refunded.
How do I get it?
Right after you pay, a download button appears on this page, and the link is emailed to you. The link works for 30 days and up to 10 downloads.
Why is my name on the PDF?
Each copy is licensed to one person. Your name and a unique licence ID are printed in it, which stops copies being passed around and resold.
How do I know a payment request is really from you?
We only take payment through this checkout or an invoice emailed from an @asendify.co address. Our only official WhatsApp is +91 90960 82894. We never ask you to pay a personal account, UPI ID, crypto wallet or gift card. If anyone does, don't pay, and email ceo@asendify.co.
